Passport Photo Maker
Turn an ordinary photograph into a passport-size picture at exact dimensions — 2×2 inches, 35×45 millimetres, or any pixel size you type in. The photo is cropped from the centre to the right shape and then resized precisely, so the result genuinely matches what a form asks for rather than merely coming close.

How to make a passport size photo
- Select a clear, well-lit photo with your face roughly centred.
- Pick a size — 2×2 inch, 35×45 mm, or a custom pixel size.
- Download the result, ready to print or upload to the form you need.
When you'd use this
- Visa and passport applications — Forms that specify an exact photograph size in millimetres or inches.
- Exam and job portals — Sites that demand a photograph at particular dimensions before accepting a submission.
- Identity cards — Producing a correctly proportioned picture for a workplace or college card.
- Photo prints — Getting an image to a standard size before sending it off to be printed.
Good to know
- Two common presets, plus custom — 2×2 inches is the usual United States requirement and 35×45 mm the common international one. Custom accepts any width and height in pixels.
- The crop is taken from the centre — Position your face near the middle of the picture before using the tool, since it trims equally from the sides.
- It sets dimensions, not official compliance — This gets the size exactly right. Rules about background colour, expression, headwear, glasses and lighting vary by country and remain yours to meet.
- Pair it with Compress Image — If the form also caps the file size in kilobytes, compress the finished photo afterwards.
Frequently asked questions
Is 2×2 inch the right size for my passport photo?
2×2 inch (51×51 mm) is a very common passport and visa photo size, but requirements differ by country and by document. Always check the exact size, background colour and other rules on your passport office's or embassy's own website before submitting a photo.
Does this tool check that my face is positioned correctly?
No — it only crops your photo to the right shape and resizes it to the exact pixel dimensions you choose. It doesn't check face position, background colour or expression, since official rules vary by country. Use a plain, evenly lit background and centre your face before uploading for the best result.
My face isn't centred in the result — what do I do?
This tool crops from the centre of your original photo. If your face isn't centred in the source image, use the Image Cropper first to select the right area, then resize the cropped result here.
What format is the photo saved as?
JPG, with a white background behind any transparent areas — the format almost every passport, visa and form portal expects.
Does this guarantee my photo will be accepted?
No, and no tool could honestly promise that. It gets the dimensions exactly right, but every authority also has its own rules on background, expression, glasses and head position. Check the guidance for the country you are applying to.
What if my face is not centred in the photo?
The crop is taken from the centre, so an off-centre subject can end up badly placed. Use Image Cropper first to centre your face, then run that result through here.
